Since the showโs themes revolve around believing in oneself and challenging preconceived notions, I think they figured that introducing a group of non-magical guys from a school that doesnโt believe in magic and even looks down on witches would be the best way to challenge Akkoโs beliefs and, in turn, help her grow. It was more about challenging Akkoโs dreams at the end of the day. If a S2 ever happens, i could see them introducing multiple schools with boys, Harry Potter style.
